Open the door, put on your skis, and after a 3 to 4 minute walk you are at the lift. This 2.5-room ground-floor apartment lies in the heart of the Crans-Montana ski area and was completely renewed in 2025 – new kitchen, new floors, new electrical panel, newly furnished. With a separate bedroom with its own bathroom and a sofa bed in the living room, it sleeps up to 4 people – in winter and summer.

For investors: CHF 9'255 in bookings have already come in for the coming winter – CHF 1'126 in December, CHF 2'393 in January and CHF 5'736 in February. And that while it is only September. The previous owner earned around CHF 16'000 in rental income per year; the current owner achieved CHF 12'000 in the first year despite several months out of use for renovation and personal stays. After the 2025 renewal (around CHF 20'000 invested), the realistic rental potential is around CHF 20'000 per year, approx. CHF 1'670 per month. At a price of CHF 389'000, this corresponds to a gross yield of around 5%.
The apartment is located in the heart of the Crans-Montana ski area. In summer, hiking and mountain bike trails start right outside the door. Restaurants and shops are 10–12 minutes on foot, and the bus stops right in front of the building. Good to know: the apartment faces north and has no balcony.

Situation
The apartment is located in the heart of the Crans-Montana ski area, one of the most famous resorts in Valais, at an elevation of about 1,500 m. The ski lifts are just a 3–4-minute walk away—ideal for a hassle-free day of skiing without a long walk or a drive. Restaurants and shopping are a 10–12-minute walk away, and the bus stop right in front of the house provides convenient access to the rest of the village and the mountain railways.
Crans-Montana isn’t just attractive in winter: In summer, the numerous hiking trails and mountain bike routes around the village invite you to enjoy outdoor activities, and there are also golf courses and lakes in the surrounding area. The location is therefore ideal both for vacationers and as a year-round retreat, as well as for investors looking to benefit from year-round demand.
Municipality
The municipality of Crans-Montana was formed in 2017 through the merger of Chermignon, Mollens, Montana, and Randogne, and today has a population of approximately 10,500.
It spans 6,000 hectares from the Rhône Valley to the high mountains—and is one of the best-known vacation destinations in French-speaking Valais, characterized by alpine tourism, an international clientele, and a correspondingly well-developed infrastructure.
Access
Crans-Montana is easily accessible via the A9 highway to Sierre and from there via the mountain road. Alternatively, the Sierre–Montana–Crans funicular—at 4,192 meters, the longest above-ground funicular in Europe—takes you directly to the center in about 15 minutes. The Sierre train station has direct connections to Basel, Bern, Geneva, Lausanne, and Zurich, and the airports in Geneva and Sion are within easy driving distance.
Shops/stores
In Crans-Montana itself, you’ll find everything you need for daily life within walking distance: Migros, Coop, Denner, and Aldi, as well as a pharmacy, are all located in the center. In addition, there are around 250 boutiques and specialty shops that define the town’s character—from everyday shopping to browsing international brands, everything is right on your doorstep.
Public transport
Within Crans-Montana, the free SMC shuttle bus runs every 15–20 minutes (7:05 a.m.–7:37 p.m.) and connects the town center, residential neighborhoods, and mountain railways. Regionally, the town can also be reached from the Sierre train station by PostBus in about 35 minutes. So even without a car, residents here can easily get anywhere.
Leisure time
Crans-Montana offers a wide range of recreational activities for every season: in winter, skiing, cross-country skiing, and snowshoeing right on your doorstep; in summer, golf, mountain biking, hiking, and trail running. In addition, five swimming lakes, tennis, horseback riding, wellness facilities, and the casino are available year-round—along with a lively restaurant and nightlife scene. In short: there’s something for every season and every taste.
